Reviews from Angela's wedding

I thought I would write my reviews from Angela's wedding since sometimes it's nice to get a guest's perspective.

Venue:  Trinity Audobon Center
I really liked this place.  I thought it was very different, laid out nicely and the ceremony area was really lovely.  My only complaint as a guest was the long walk on the gravely parking lot in heels. I heard that there were some AC issues but I was perfectly comfortable.

Catering:  Glory House
The food was delicious.  The spinach stuffed chicken was my favorite.  Also the staff was really nice too--I didn't know what to drink so I told the bartender to make me "something fruity with vodka" which he did.  The drinks were not very strong--but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Cake: Candy Haven
I enjoyed my slice of cake and it was really beautiful too. 

DJ: Glenn Roush
Anyone who knows me knows I love Glenn but I will try to be objective--I thought he did great and there was someone dancing at every song.  I sat and watched and everyone looked to be enjoying themselves.  The reception flowed at the proper pace.

Premiere Booth:  Everyone seemed to enjoy the photobooth and the guy had no problem with all 7 of us Knotties crowding in the booth to take our picture!

Flowers:  MegB Designs
I loved Angela's flowers--the pastels were lovely with her color scheme and the milk glass.  I have terrible allergies but Tiffany swore she could even smell the flowers on the table.  I loved the color scheme of the gold linens with the milk glass and pastel flowers and the "fresh from the garden look" Angela wanted was perfect I thought.  She apparently had to use fake candles but in the frosted votives, you couldn't even tell they weren't real.

Lighting: I am not sure if Glenn or TAC provided the lighting but Angela had the one wall light up with soft purple lighting and it was really pretty.

    I'm not so good with the advice... Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

    The drinks were a little weak but that was okay with me.  We were wondering where the marinara/alfredo sauces were for the pasta but, other than that, Angela's wedding was absolutely beautiful!!!!!

    I wondered where the sauces were too!! And I don't know why they made the drinks weak- we have a TON of liquor left over! At least a whole unopened bottle of Jack, tequila, and vodka!

    I will try to get my reviews written up tomorrow before we leave on Wednesday. I haven't felt like doing anything but veg out. <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif" border="0" alt="Laughing" title="Laughing" />

    Ohh too bad I missed that chicken you'all are talking about. I had the kid's mac and cheese and it was actually really good!
    The wine was great too...
    I loved all the decor and the sign-in  tree was very original!

    Kids Mac and Cheese and Chicken Fingers were good!! Ha Ha. 

    I was burning up, but I'm sure that had a lot to do with the fact that I was playing games with children who wanted me to run around like a crazy person for several hours.  :)

    ETA:  I loved the purple light and the flowers were gorgeous and smelled wonderful!!
